{MFT Teasers- Day 4} Inspired by Flowers

Up for previews today are 2 sets: Inspired by Flowers (set 2) and Sunbathing Flopsey.
I am really going out on a limb and showing you Inspired by Flowers...not by choice, I am NOT a flower person!! But in my awesome prize package I didn't get Flopsey, so I used the flower set instead. It really is a beautiful set, but I am florally challenged;) I don't know how to colour them, nor do I even know what colours they are supposed to be for what kind of flower they are!!
So here it is:

The stem and leaves are cut out and popped up on dimensionals and liquid pearls are added to the little blossom-y type of things (told ya i don't know my flora!)...spica clear and buttermilk pen was coloured on bits of the petals and flower center. I dry embossed the blue panel, tied some satin ribbon and hot glued some leaf stick pins and a flowery yellow button tied with yellow hemp twine to the bubbly bow.

Here is the inside. The set has some really beautiful sentiments, I chose this one by Christopher Reeve about hope.

I stamped the daisy (??) in memento rich cocoa, stamping it off once, and then stamped the sentiment in marina mist SU ink.

Check out the inspiration from the DT. Kim has a complete list of participating designers on her blog.
